String to Binary Converter
Convert text or characters into binary code. Easily convert any string or text input into its corresponding binary representation using this online tool. This converter simplifies the process of converting alphanumeric characters, symbols, or sentences into binary format. Simply input your desired string and instantly get the binary equivalent.
What is String to Binary Converter
A String to Binary Converter is a tool that converts a string of text into its binary representation. In the binary system, each character is represented by a sequence of 0s and 1s.
To convert a string to binary, the converter typically follows these steps:
- Convert each character in the string to its corresponding ASCII code.
- Convert the ASCII code to its binary representation using 8 bits (or more, depending on the encoding).
- Concatenate the binary representations of all characters together to form the binary representation of the entire string.
For example, let's convert the word "hello" to binary using ASCII encoding:
-
Convert each character to its ASCII code:
- 'h' = 104
- 'e' = 101
- 'l' = 108
- 'l' = 108
- 'o' = 111
-
Convert the ASCII codes to binary using 8 bits:
- 104 = 01101000
- 101 = 01100101
- 108 = 01101100
- 108 = 01101100
- 111 = 01101111
-
Concatenate the binary representations:
- 01101000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111
So, the binary representation of the string "hello" would be "01101000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111".
There are online tools and programming libraries available that can perform string to binary conversions for you. They make it easy to convert any given string to its binary representation.
How to Convert Text to String
Convert text to binary ASCII code:
- Get character
- Get decimal code of character from ASCII table
- Convert decimal to binary byte
- Continue with next character
Example
Convert "Plant trees" text to binary ASCII code:
Solution:
Use ASCII table to get ASCII code from character.
"P" => 80 = 26+24 = 010100002
"l" => 108 = 26+25+23+22 = 011011002
"a" => 97 = 26+25+20 = 011000012
⁝
For all the text characters you should get the binary bytes:
"01010000 01101100 01100001 01101110 01110100 00100000 01110100 01110010 01100101 01100101 01110011"
How to convert 'A' character to binary?
Use ASCII table: 'A' = 6510 = 64+1 = 26+20 = 010000012
How to convert '0' character to binary?
Use ASCII table: '0' = 4810 = 32+16 = 25+24 = 001100002
